Thus 101., 201., or 301., for instance, if, remitted in One Bank of Eng land Note would only cause double Postage, but 101. remitted in two notes, would be liable to a much higher charge. It is there fore most advisable, for an- J . Person having to remit Money to Ham burgh, to forward the a - ,nount in One Note; or having to receive :Money from Hamburgh, to receive the same in One Note, when ever possible. Of course remittances from Hamburgh to England, surpassing the r.sual amount of One Bank of. England Note, may rather he made in Bills of Exchange, on London. To save expenses that may as well be avoided, we request our Correspondents not to overlook these particulars.

We have great pleasure in directing the attention of our readers to the luminous Speech of her Majesty the QUEEN REGENT of SPAIN, on Opening the Consti tutional Cortes of the kingdom, on the 24th ult., which will be found inserted at full length in another part of this journal. Nothing pleases us so much in the com position of this document as the candour with which ler MAJESTY invites the Deputies to assume the high and holy office of saving and giving liberty to the country. Her MAJESTY neither conceals nor extenu ates the danger to which the nation is exposed from the Carlist rebellion. She inferentially admits that nothing short of a most vigorous struggle on the part of the Spanish people can speedily deliver Spain from the presence of the Pretender; and she avows the extreme misery to which the population have been reduced in ' those districts where the rebels have made predatory incursions. She traces to the long continuance of the civil war, and its attendant evils, the ruin of the lia tional finances, and the mal-administratiOn of 'justice ; and in the third paragraph of the Speech she pronounces The present "cruel war" which distresses Spain, to be "not less terrible in its effects," while " more bitter in its origin," than the French invasion of 1823. This declaration will awaken Spain to a real sense of the critical position in which she is placed. The Govern ment is at last convinced of the folly, as well as of the mischief, of treating the Carlist insur..ection as a trivial and momentary interruption of the exercise of the Royal authority in a few disaCfected districts. Th e truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, is found at last to accord as harmoniously with the principles of sound policy as with the dictates of a pure morality. We repeat that we are particularly delighted with this part of the Royal Speech. It will restore confi dence, both at home and abroad, in the future declara tions of the Government. It will prepare the deputies and the nation for the adoption of the most energetic measures. It will rouse the dormant faculties of the apathetic ; fix the purposes of the wavering ; and ap prise all who love liberty.who are ready to shed their blood in defence of the Constitution—that the hour Is come when Spain requires their best assistance. Her MAJESTY, we arc happy to observe. , e s ti mates at its due worth, the support which sir, has received from England, since our G overnmen , entered into the Quadruple Alliance. Of Frar: • she says but little, convex; an indir ec t censure of one and even that little con v of the last acts of L OUIS PHILIPPE. The name of England occurs ".wire in the Speech, and on each occasion in 17auage expressive of the good faith manifests' by this country. France is only once re ferred. to, and that once in the following extract ;- 1 ‘ The foreign Powers which in both hemispheres ac knowledge the iodispitteble right of my august daughter, all confirm their former relations of amity and good under standing with ir.e. Among them, especially, the august . allies o f th e q ueen, the parties to the Quadruple Treaty of Alliance, manifest the same disposition to maintain it ; and in eonfo;mity to it they continue to afford us the same co opera:cion and assistance as before. To the many acts of support which we were indebted for to his Britannic Ma j esty, he has since added the support of the operations of our Northern Army by a naval force, which largely share in the glory reaped before St. Sebastian on the .sth of May ust ; and he has just consented to send us a hundred thou sand more muskets, which are so important to us in our pre• sent situation. We are also indebted to his Majesty the King of the French for the reinforcement which, with a worthy General, is already incorporated with the Auxiliary Alfgerine Legion. It is true, indeed, that Mat Cabinet has since deemed it proper not to carry any further its prepara tions to complete the co-operation on the part of France. Her Most Faithful Majesty gives me daily fresh testimony of her good will ; and at this very mom en t negot i ations are proceeding with her Goverment, from which I expect a be neficial result, for the ultimate and more efficient co-opera tion of the Portuguese auxiliary forces." The words in italics clearly charge the French Go vernment, notwithstanding all its professions, messages, THE SUN, LONIDON, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 2, 1836. array of rank and wealth at our political dinners— above all, mark our operative associations, in which the working classes have enrolled themselves from a sheer love of our principles." In shorty a complete revolution in the public tultia was the only ex= planation of thest - plietiomtila that walla go down with 6c 'roles, followed up As it was every moment expected to be, 'with 118 complete a revolution of the wilco' which Sets in motion the political machinery of Downing -street, Alas to what gtieVoUs disappointments are we liable in this valley of tears I How are the fairest prospects of human felicity blasted in the twinliling of an eye! Those glittering visions which danced before the imaginations of the Tories have already vanished ) and those warm hopes so delightful fof the mind (out of office) to repose upon, have been all at once frozen by the chill and ruthless blast of the Ist of Novetthef== , a day henceforth to be blotted Olit from every Tory calendar. Th ese fcw Cursory reflections have been naturally sug ges it by the reports of the Municipal elections which will be found elsewhere. It will be seen that the boastings of the Tories have resulted in what they commenced—moonshine—clear moonshine ; or some thing, if possible, even more unsubstantial. At Bristol, their stronghold, they have sustained a signal overthrow—at Lichfield they have been battered to the ground —at Devizes they have been com pletely crushed, and at Northampton they can never again lift up their heads. These are the only places from which n ieho doubtwehav that to -morrow t asy , et received intelli g ence ; b u t we have record a simil a r . we shall have t o triumph for thC Cause of Reform in every I .',orough in England. FRAsEit's and BLACKWOOD'S Magazines this month abuse the Ministers in their very heartiest and broadest style ; the former, in a diatribe entitled the " State and Prospects of Whiggism," the latter, in one entitled the " House of Peers." As FRASER deals chiefly in generalities, venting his flippant Billingsgate abuse without a why or a wherefore, we shall pass by his remarks, and come at once to those of BLACK WOOD, who, though equally unscrupulous in his vitu peration of Government, yet does now and then con descend to give reasons for " the faith that is in him." He insists, for instance, on the necessity of our having an hereditary, irresponsible House of Peers, because if such were not the case, " the movement party would long ere this have usurped an irresistible sovereignty ; the Protestant Church would have been spoliated to make way for the re-establishment of the Catholic hierachy in the one island, and a Glamourous vo luntary medley in the other; while property of every sort would have been either confiscated, or on the high road to confiscation." We know of few passages penned by a headstrong Con servative that contain more fallacies than this. Each clause is a MunchaUsen, without even the sorriest in- genuity to recommend it. Is not the writer aware that the very idea of a " Catholic hierarchy" is obnoxious to nine out of ten men in the empire, and that emanci pation was carried in direct opposition to the majority? That if it were proposed to re-establish Popery in the kingdom, the Radicals, speaking the sense of the com munity, would be the very first to oppose such a mon strous proposition ? To talk of the dangers to be ap prehended from Catholicism in these days, is like talking of the malign influence of witches. Both are exploded absurdities, and desperately indeed must that man be pressed for argument who can condescend to have recourse to such nonsense. " Property of every sort would have been confiscated, or on the high road to confiscation ?" Why, this is as absurd as the clamour about Popery ! Are the Conservatives the only possessors of property ? Have the Reformers no stand ing in society—no stake in the country? Nay, has the Ultra-Movement party nothing to lose by a eonvlsion ? Would Mr. GROTE, or Sir WILLIAM MOLESWORTH, or Sir THOMAS LETHBRIDGE, or a hundred others that we could mention—all Reformers, " every inch " of them—would men like these encourage a system of policy, whose inevitable result would be to " confiscate property of every sort ? " We are perfectly astonished how a Magazine of such first-rate influence, both in politics: and literature, as BLACKWOOD'S, can coun tenance such arrant, undiluted, unalloyed nonsense ! If property be ever confiscated--though the hypothesis is so absurd, as scarcely to deserve even a passing al lusion—such a result will not be brought about by the Movement party, but by those who are straining every nerve to check its laudable and constitutional activity. There are no .anarchists that we know of, but the House of Peers. These be your only revolu tionists. Had it not been for O'CONNELL, these crack-brained fanatics would, long ere this, have wrapped Ireland in flames. See the state to which they reduced the country in 183 And to such a state they will again reduce it, if the Reformers do not strenuously combine their energies, and insist on manacling the fools, hand and foot. Again, we re peat, what we have said a dozen times already, that the Reformers are the only Conservatives, and that if they wish to follow up the true Conservative principle, and bring it to a successful issue, they must, without loss of time, clap a muzzle on the Lords. Till this be done, nothing is done. It is idle to talk of wait ing—we have waited long enough. To delay the re medial process, as Mr. SPRING RICE recommends, in the hope that their Lordships may return to their senses, and so render it unnecessary, is like waiting, to cross a river till the flood shall have rolled by. Aris tocratic prejudice is a tide that knows no ebb, but flows full, and will flow on full, for ever. TO THE EDITOR OP THE SUN. poor Stn,—Your able Journal uphold Ms the ca pf the as well as the rich. Pardon me if I call your attention the trial of a mangy on Thursday last, at the Old tiditect Rickards, fOr wh'iitti Mr. UlarkSon Was counsel. never before heard of a counsel discharging the trust re posed in him by his client, by admitting that client's guilt, before the Jury had brought in a verdict, and while the client persisted in hii plea of not guilty. Were such con duct frequent, no man could feel lige in the hands of coun sel. Put it to yourself ; Mr: editor, Were you defend ant •in any cause, of criminal, could you think of em ploying such an advocate ? Consider how this would operate in trials for political offences—every man will be title to bring home to hittl:elf the consequence of such a practice ; in fact, confidence between :.7 1 .!'f' 41 : gncl counsel would be completely destroyed. I am, Sir, your humble servant, JUSTITIA. Monday, Oct. 31, CHANCERY COURT,-(THIS DAY. This being. the first day of Michaelmas term, the Lord Chancellor did not take his seat in his Court at West minster till nearly it o'clock, having to entertain the Learned Judges, Masters in Chancery, King's Counsel, &c. at breakfast, in Bruton-street, from which place his Lord ship, accompanied by the Judges, proceeded in state to Westminster. His LORDSHIP, on taking his seat, was atterblea by the Master of the Rolls, the Vice-Chancellor, and Masters Sir Giffin Wilson and Wingfield. His Lordship then pro ceeded to hear motions. lod speeches, with seceding from the Quadruple Treaty. This is the fact ; and the Madrid Cabinet is now fully sensible that nothing is to be gained by concealing it from the nation. The French Ambas sador will doubtless be instructed to demand explana tions, and to play over again the Swiss Montebello game. But such intrigues will only tend to deprive France of all moral influence abroad, and to male her Government detestable in the eves of her brave And generous people. The portions of the Speech which refer to the un constitutional acts of the Ministers, and the only jus tification which they seek to offer for such acts— namely, the necessity of saving the country—display a magnanimity worthy of the honest advisers of a Constitutional Sovereign. Such an appeal to the noblest feelings of the Cortes cannot have been made in vain. Her MAJESTY is not wanting in solicitude for the maintenance of the national credit. She expresses a hope that the payment of the half-year's dividend, due on the Ist of November, will be made very shortly ; !. and that the Cort es w ill no t b e want i ng i n their ekts to assist the Gov ernmen t i n ma i nta i n i ng an' extending : public confidence i n th e pledges ET; 'en by the Admi nistration. We do not see t i :iat it is in the power of the QUEEN to do more than this under such circum stances. Neithe_-, her M AJESTY nor h er Mi n i sters are directly to blame for the emptiness of the public Treasury ; and the most that can be demanded from I'hem is, that Spain will pay her debts as soon as she is in possession of the means of paying them. We are pleased to learn that Spain is on the eve of recognizing, on the basis of a firm friendship, the in dependence of her South American Colonies. We have reason to believe that the treaties to that effect have been prepared for several months, and that they have alr ea dy rece i ve d t h e sanct i on of the agents from South America, a t p resen t res idi ng i n the Spanish capital. They will, th ere f ore , be formallysigned an d made public when the Cortes shalt 'have approved of them. The closing paragr7Lph of the Speech is one of the most dignified '.j peals to the patriotism of a repre sentative Assembly we ever remember to have read. It will sink deep into the hearts of the Cortes and the nation. After expatiating on the necessity of putting an end to the civil war, her IVlAntstY concludes witll the following words "At the same time you will pro cee d t o t h e reform of the Constitution ; a n d with a hand as skilful as firm you will establish the basis of the new social organization. To this noble and majestic work, you are principally called. I in such a matter nothing propose or counsel as Queen— nothing do I seek as mother. It is not possible to ima gine, from the kno wn generos i ty of the Spanish nation, that the prerogative of the constitutional throne will suffer any prejudice on account of the orphancy and youth of the innocent Queen who has bean called to occupy it. Europe has its regards upon you ; she will see that, taught by twenty-fours of combats, of misfortunes, and cruel changes, you know how to apply the lessons of your own experience and those of foreign example. Arrived at the summit of your sublime mission, you will, I doubt not, discard all partial and narrow interests, and all exclusive systems. The nation and the civilized world hope from you a fundamental law in which the legislative power shall de liberate and resolve without precilniation and without pas sion ; in which the Executive Government shall have all the freedom and force of action which it needs, without giving any ground fryr apprehending that it will become an oppressor ; and in which the administration of justice, strengthened by an absolute independence, shall give no cause of inquietude to innocence, nor of impunity to crime. Such are, without doubt, the views with which you will en ter upon this great work, worthy of your knowledge and of your Prudence. Thus revised and reformed, the Spanish Constitution will acquire more respect and sympathy amongst foreign nations ; more love, if possible, and more stability among ourselves." We are not surprised to learn that this Speech was received with the greatest enthusiasm. We augur the commencement of a new and prosperous era from the date of its deliverance. The whole of the Paris papers of Monday have been received. Their contents are uninteresting, with the exception of the following extracts from the Mo niteur Government has received from Bayonne the following news;—. " Oct. 29, Ralf-past Three. " We have intelligence from the Carlist headquarters : the assault had been determined upon for the 27th. Chance has designated the deserters from the Algiers Legion to pro ceed the first to the attack. " The forts of Begona and St. Augustin have been taken. A Portuguese General in the Carlist service has been killed, and Montenegro wounded. The sea is bad : there is no com municating except by land. " Tl Octobe. " The Carli s t s h ave i nvaded the ou ouse, valley of Aran. r 29 The Christinos who have attempted to defend the entrance, have been dispersed or destroyed ; the emigration is considerable." We have received three several communications from a frielld at - Norwich—for whose opinion we have great respect—complaining of the unfairness of our comments upon the conduct of the Queen of SPAIN'S Generals. Our correspondent is so well aware of the sincerity with which we advocate the cause of the QUEEN and Constitution, of the earnestness with which we have repeatedly recommended to our Government a more active co-operation against Don CARLOS--and of the frequency of our endeavours to impress upon France the expediency of following a similar course, that we may spare ourselves any apology for our cen sure by an appeal to our uniform consistency. We pray our patriotic friend to reflect a moment upon the injustice he does us, in assuming :that we adopt the opinions of the:,Slandarel, even while censuring the conduct of certain individuals nominally supporters of the QUEEN and Liberty. The Standard cites their treachery, real or imputed, as a conse quence of their principles ; we, as a consequence of their ignorance or their treachery—errors as imputable to the avowed champions of tyranny as the fiercest as serters of democracy. We never, on any one occasion, all Owed ourselves to reflect the charges we were pain fully compelled to bring against the QUEEN'S Gene rals upon the cause in which they are embarked. There are occasions when we may have been more severe than the wrong which we were called upon to repudiate would seem to merit ; but our Correspondent must be aware that there are certain acts which, though trifling or indifferent in themselves, contain within them the germ of the basest crimes. It was by observing these closely that we were enabled to foretell with such certainty the treachery of CORDOVA long before he was suspected by a single officer in his own army—that we foretold the disgrace of TORENO—the expulsion of IsTumz— and the downfall of other pseudo-patriots when at the zenith of their glory. Time Will decide all differences of opinion between ourselves and our Correspondent. At the same time, we feel obliged by his attention, the more esp•tcially as he does justice to our motives. Ile will find his observations respecting GoslEz, AL Aix, and Rolm, amply discussed in our next arti cle on the subject of the war in Spain. _ .te readers of The Sun will find in its pages to day, sundry proofs of that general reaction of which we have of late heard so much. The foolish and factious Tories have been trumpeting, through their mouth-pieces of the Press, the daily progress of poli tical conversion among all classes , of the community, until, according to them, the whole mass has become thoroughly imbued, nay saturated and super-saturated, with the leaven of Toryism. The inhabitants of the t6wns were represented as outrunning thoseofptrhe.e counties in this new-light race, and if any one sumed to question the accuracy of these state ments, he was told, with an air of affected triumph, to look to the stir that the supporters of the good old cause were every where making. " Look to our Conservative meetinas " was the cry; "behold the THE FUNDS.-(THIS DAY.) CITY, TWELVE O'CLOCK. Our arrivals this morning are the French mails, and ship letters from Hobart Town. The Launceston papers to the 3d of June are entirely destitute of information. The Queen of Spain's speech is the general topic of con versation this morning among the Spanish Bondholders. In respect to the state of finances, it has already been antici pated. It states that Spain is unable to collect the means of paying the half year's dividend, falling due on the Ist of November, but trusts the Government will overcome that obstacle, and that there will be but a short delay in the payment. This speech has not as yet had much effect on the Spa nish Bonds, which closed yesterday at 191 to 19i Ex dividend, and opened at 19i—a fall of about 1 per Cent. ; Passive, 5-1 ; Deferred, 81 ; Portuguese, 551.55 i ; Three per Cents., 351 36.

We have seen th e following let H ter ALF-PAST ONE direct from Bilboa, dated the :24th inst. : " Yesterday and to-day three of the enemy's battalions approached our town, and exchanged some shots, and by to morrow, it is expected, they will be increased to eight bat talions.

The VICE-CHANCELLOR, on taking his seat. shortly be fore two o'clock, proceeded to give judgment on some re served points in the cases of Phelps and Sproule, and Chipping Sudbury School, which possessed no points of in terest, and then proceeded to hear motions. KING"S BENCH-THIS DAY. This being the first day of Michaelmas Term, the Court was opened with the usual formalities. Lord Denman, and Justices Patteson, Williams, and Coleridge, took their seats at half-past one o'clock. THE KING V. WRIGHT, MAYOR OF SUNDERLAND. The ATTORNEY-GENERAL moved in this case that cer tain affidavits might be read on the hearing of the case. It was a rule in the nature of a quo warranto, calling upon the defendant to show by what authority he exercised the office of Mayor of Sunderland. The Learned Gentleman proceeded to state at length the grounds upon which he made the present application, notice of which had been served upon the other side. The COURT saw no objection to the application. ARCHES COURT.--(THIS DAY.) Before Sir HERBERT JENNER. This being the first day of Term, the Dean of the Arches, and the Counsel and Proctors attended prayers. Dr. Robertson was admitted as a Civilian to practise in this .Court. TAYLOR V. MORLEY. iThis is a proceeding instituted by the Churchwardens of Newport Pagnel against the Rev. George Morley, the Vicar of the parish, for acting disrespectfully to the Vener able the Archdeacon while on the Visitation. The case is one of appeal. Dr. LUSHINGTON appeared for the Churchwardens, and contended that a case had been made out ; that the Rev. Mr. Morley had been guilty of improper conduct, and that he . ought to be canonically censured. Dr. ADAMS, for the Rev. 11Ir. Morley, said he should contend that there was no case made out against his party, and that the Officer of the Judge had been promoted in the most improper manner ; that it was not the suit of the Churchwardens, but of the Very Rev. and Venerable the Archdeacon—He should submit with confidence that his party ought to be dismissed with costs. - Dr. LiJSHINGTON proceeded to argue the case, and relied with confidence on the evidence to show that the Rev. Mr. Morley had been guilty of most improper conduct, amount ing to drawing. The Learned ADVOCATE proceeded to investigate the evidence, shewing that the Rev. Gentleman had not con formed to the authority of the Archdeacon, and that he had desired him to turn him out of his own Church, on the Archdeacon's calling upon the.parties proceeded against, not to interrupt the proceedings of the day. The case was proceeding when our reporter left. CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT. (THIS DAT.) The Lord Mayor, the Judges, Aldermen, and Sheriffs, met to-day at 11 o'clock in the Old Court, for the purpose of appointing the days for the sitting of the Court during the ensuing year.

The Court then adjourned to Monday, November 28. THE MARKETS-(THIS DAY). CORN EXCHANGE. The supply of Wheat continues moderate, and the millers being indisposed to purchase, there has been little business done to-day at Monday's prices. Barley is fair supply, and the rates are unaltered. Beans and Pease continue as on Monday. T',:e quantity of Oats has increased, chiefly from Ireland, and this article remains at Monday's terms. The Flour trade remains as last reported. Alt R I VALS. Wheat. Barley. Oats. Flour.

The subject was ably argued, and a great ma jority decided hi favour of the motion. A Committee was appointed to act on behalf of the Corporation with the Di rectors of the projected lines, and the one from Hull, the chief sea-port for the North of Europe, was particularly applauded. That from Boston was also favourably received. The very considerable rise which has taken place in the value of wheat on the corn market has created a great deal of attention in the City, and it proves that the harvest in the north df Great Britain and Ireland is a complete failure Wheat has been quoted at an advance of 3s. per quarter, and flour has advanced ss. per sack. The Rev. George Stoors has been sentenced to three months in the House of Correction by a Justice of the Peace in Pittsfield, N. H., for delivering an anti-slavery lecture in that place.—N. E. Spectator (an American Paper.) The new church erected in St. Clement's parish, Ipswich, at the sole cost of the Rev. J. T. Nottidge, the Rector, was consecrated last week by the Lord Bishop of Sodor and Man, in the presence of a large congregation. The cost is estimated at 2,0001. It contains about 750 sit tings, of which 300 are free. The Countess of Munster, accompanied by another lady, paid a visit yesterday to the little Donna Santiago de los Santos, wife of the Spanish dwarf. Having expressed an earnest wish to see the patient, she was ushered into her bedchamber, and conversed with her for half an hour, ex pressing much wonder and satisfaction at the almost mira culous birth which had lately taken plhce. Her Ladyship promised shortly to repeat her visit, accompanied by some of her noble and Royal relatives, and, on her departure, acted in the most munificent manner towards the lady and her attendants, as well as to the little Don. In the parish of Chulmleigh alone, which contains about two thousand inhabitants, there are no less than sixty-one old maidens, fifty-three marriageable, and forty two widows, and only fifteen widowers, and thirty-one ba chelors ; so that it will he found by a few figures there are one hundred and ten females who apparently have but a slight chance of ever being led to the hymeneal altar in this place.—Exeter Times. . PROMPTITUDE OF CURRAN.—At the Assizes at Cork, Curran bad once entered upon his case, and stated the facts to the Jury. He then, with his usual impressive ness and pathos, appealed to their feelings, and was con cluding the whole with this sentence :—" Thus, gentlemen, I trust I have made the innocence of that persecuted man as clear, to you as —" at that instant the sun, which had hitherto been overclouded, shot its rays into the Court-house, as clear to you," continued he, " as yonder sunbeam, which now bursts in among us, and supplies me with its splendid illustration." At a Temperance Meeting, a few evenings since, in Doncaster, a printer, dressed in black, and calling himself a reformed drunkard, actually had the audacity to state that he now drank nothing stronger than milk ; but if he th ou ght the cow from which it came " swallowed grains " he would abandon that beverage also,— York Courant.

It as Vi 2 Bl - :cd.tbat the servants of the claimant were on the premises day-=that when the doors were locked there were watchmen Inside, and that the servants took their meals inside. Mr. Nane, the solicitor, attended one day in a week, and the pro prietors held a meeting once a month j lint it was also in proof that there were two rooms reserted for the use of the proprietors, who might use them in any Wan de at tiny time they pleased. In proof of that, it was stated that one of the Directors had dined there Within a short time. The claimants had entirely made out their ease in all particulars except et' occupation. Wh en t h e t'atil was before him last year that p6:2t did not come before s 4 then there was not proof of the proper' a' hqing of sufficient vitifie, That was now proved by further evidence., Nui the question now was, earl the claimant occupy the building *;ft such a manner as contemplated by the Act of Parliament. 'lll ,, opinion was that they did not. The case of the Judges' Chambers in Sergeant's Inn had been cited, but there the objection was tahon on the ground of these Chambers being held officially, which gfdtina failed, and no evidence was given as to the number of attemianees. This case was much of the same nature as that of the ancients of Ber nard's Inn. They dined 38 times a year, and attended the library when they pleased. Last year he had held that that was not a suffloieut occupation, and the case having been argued this year before lilt Learned Colleague, he was glad to find that he (Mr. Mike) concurred in his views. He (Mr. C.) was of opinion that no public buildings could be made the subject of such an occupation as was contem plated:by the Legislature. Under all the circumstances, the claims must be.disallowed. MUNICIPAL ELECTIONS. TORY RE-ACTION/! LICHFIELD, Cytt,DuALt, Nov. 1. The Printer of the Staffordshire Examiner begs to ac quaint the Editor of The Sun, that the Tories art beaten out of the Corporation of Lichfield. The contest was wa.orm.: the parsons and proctors came up from the Close in all their force, but in vain. It is to be observed that there were four Tories elected last year This is a great triumph to the Liberal interest—an acre, SOUTH WARD. able proof of Tory re-action ! NORTH WARD.

Our Municipal Election of this day has increased the strength of the Liberal party in the town. In the North Ward, three Liberals went out, and have been re-elected ; a fourth has been chosen in the place of one of the Council who has been made an Alderman : Mr. James Randall, Mr. C. Hook, Mr. R. V. Leach, Dr. Tomkins. In the South Ward one Liberal and two Tories went out, and three Liberals have been elected :—Mr. H. B. Cart wright, Mr. Jos. Dredge, Mr. Sedgefield. The Tories made no opposition. The Reformers now number nineteen—the Tories five. How are the mighty fallen ! NORTHAMPTON.-TUESDAY. (FROII OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.) The result of to-day's election has proved exceedingly favourable to the Liberals of this borough. We have three wards, and two Councillors were to go out in each ward. The west was the only ward where the Councillors were Liberals, and that has again returned two, leaving the Tory candidates considerably in the rear. Each of the wards has returned one Reformer ; and thus we now have a ma jority of two in the Town Council. Great exertions were made by both parties, the Tories even sending post chaises a distance of thirty or forty miles to bring up a vote. It was their death struggle, and henceforward they stand not the slightest chance of success in Northampton. The following are the names of the candidates, and the number of votes that each of them received. The Liberals are marked thus #. EAST WARD. *Mr. W. Percival 168 I Mr. Rands 162 Mr. C.

TRIUMPH of REFORM at BRISTOL BRISTOL, Nov. 1, FIVE O'CLOCK.—I have just time to enclose you the result of our mu n i c ipal el e ctions this day. Sixteen Councillors went out of office, eight Reformers and eight Tories. ; of the latter five only have been re-elected. The Reformers have succeeded in returning all their old friends, and have gained upon the Tories three new Mem bers. The gains too have been in the two chief wards as to property and the number of voters, viz., Clifton Ward, which has nine representatives, and Bristol Central Ward, having the same number. Tremendous exertions were made on both sides. The efforts of the Tory party during the last two hours were unparalleled, but happily unsuc• cessful. The return of Mr. Visger at ; the head of the poll is a terrible blow to the old monopolist party in this city, as no man has more strenuously exerted himself against the old system of corruption and monopoly. The unjust di vision of the city into wards by the Revising Barrister last year deprived us for a time of our proper weight in the Town-councils ; but another election like the present will give our friends the majority. As it is the Liberal minority, backed by the weight of public opinion in the city, already rules. The general course of our municipal body has been on the whole satisfactory during the past year ; it will be still more so next. Our Tory ex-eorporators are aghast at the result A CORRECT LIST OF THE TOWN COUNCIL LORS ELECTED THIS DAY. BEDAIINSTER. * Samuel Brown, elected.--No contest. BRISTOL. LIBERALS. CONSERVATIVES. T.

DRURY-LANE. t h a t One of the most curious and novel representations "i ni . our stage has seen was exhibited last' night in the P e t i r ",ll, mance of Mr. Hill, an American comic actor. Mr. the it seems, has been extremely popular in America for humorous fidelity with which he has pourtrayed the cl- ; racteristics of Yankees, a race whose peculiarities exclt l no small degree of mirth among the nephews and nie ces : a Uncle Sam. The sketches of the late Mr. Mathews a r c the lucubrations of Major Downing and Colonel Cro ck s, have given us some notion of the oddities of the Do Easters. Mr. Hill's personation furnishes a finishe d b l ' t : ture, of the accuracy of which we havo no reason to dca 5 and of the whimsicality of which we rea,gily bear witne!.. to. The Yankees are said to be distinguis2led by a c e ri s e, sleek, plausible cunning, great industry, some a scanty and pliant honesty, a dialect which LI not "lat unlike that of our own more eastern counties, a a ,, a de humorous extravagance of speech which seems to Y er— tr i. the lower classes of the United States. All these D t , i 'j j ' a butes are embodied in the Yankee pedlar, who is ' O 4 hero of the slight one-act piece which was brought „ 0 ,. last night for the purpose of introducing Mr. ili u na enterprillei a London audience. The plot of the drama is thine-. An old Virginia Colonel (Mr. Bartley) j"--0, a daughter Nancy (Miss Lee), who is beloved hY young gentleman from Philadelphia. The Colonel deg' tines her fora horse-j . ,:ekey friend of his, and is induce d ' some degree by accideni% but more by the contrivaoco of Hiram Dodge, the Yankt:e pedlar, to bestow her ba t he upon her true lover. Mr. Hill, as may be conceived , ha s a , intr l.°, who has a v whole weight of the piece on his ow.) shoulders. fie duces himself into the house of the Colonel, lent antipathy against all of Hiram's race anti n a wri bi sheer impudence, escapes a flogging by cunningly' lfor substitute for the lashes which the Colonel has prockle-n, him, and lets the Colonel's horse win a race by riding 08 posite horse himself.
